Kemuri

Saucy Dog is a rock band immensely popular among men and women in their teens and twenties.

When you think of Saucy Dog, their high vocals stand out, so many teenage boys may have assumed from the start that aiming for a high score with their songs wasn’t realistic.

That’s why we recommend “Kemuri” (Smoke).

Among Saucy Dog’s tracks, it sits on the lower end of the vocal range, and the vocal lines emphasize sustained notes, so there aren’t any complex pitch jumps.

Within their catalog, it’s a song that makes it particularly easy to aim for a high score, so be sure to check it out.

Saucy Dog “Kusege” Music Video (Theme song for the ABC TV/TV Asahi drama “My Diary”)

Saucy Dog’s “Kusege,” which has also drawn attention as a TV drama theme song, captivates many with its heart-touching melody.

The guitar mainly provides chord backing, but be mindful not to strum aimlessly—listen to the other instruments and aim to play as part of the ensemble.

The bass should center on solid root notes as the foundation, while delivering the melodic phrases in the interlude with a sense of songfulness.

The drums support the track with a steady 8-beat, and by emphasizing the contrast between the delicacy of the verse and the power of the chorus, the atmosphere deepens significantly.

I hope each player strives to perform in a way that closely supports the melody.
